We have two problems with the TS-7400 and SD-cards.
All SD-cards prepared according to
http://www.embeddedarm.com/epc/fastboot.htm
with an SD-card reader suitable for 4G SD-cards.
Any clues out there?
First problem, not so important:
We can't get it to boot at all.

Second problem, with 512M and 1G SD-cards, rather important:
For some reason we are not able to bypass the fastboot on the TS-7400.
With the original SD-card we had no problem.
